Electrical...where do you get your disconnects?

I thought you only bought Molex original parts ;).  Still, that's almost the same price as the whole crimper shown above, so I wouldn't sweat interchangeability on an $8 ratcheting crimper.  Good link for future reference though, as they seem to have quite a few options which look like they will fit these types of bodies.

Yup, I spent a while looking for an affordable solution to crimp those Molex Micro-fit terminal pins. Since I already owned a pair of ratcheting crimpers, I figured dies would be the best way to preserve the valuable real estate inside my toolbox. That site was the cheapest I was able to find at the time...

To stray slightly off-topic:

I'm looking for some pins that I can use to plug wires into a CPS1 kick harness (22-01-2087 housing with 08-52-0101 crimp terminals).

The headers in the KK series look like they're solely designed for mounting on a PCB, but I'd like to make an extension.  What do I need?

I use terminals and sleeves from polevolt.com in the UK and I use the Hozan P-706 crimp tool.



The P-706 has a range of anvils on it and I use it for Molex, Mini Molex, AMP UP, a range of JSTs, Hirose etc etc.

CPS1 uses a 10 pin JST NH housing which connects to a JST B10P-SHF-1AA header. You can use Molex KK series but the JST header is the 'correct' one to use.

This is a CPS1 breakout adapter I made for someone to connect their CPS1 wired cab to a JPAC.



You could make something similar just with another 10 pin JST NH housing on the end.

I just tin the wires, tin the header pins, solder together and then use heat shrink to insulate.

That's where I do mine, and I use http://www.restockit.com/journeyman-crimping-cutting-tool-non-insulated-insulated-terminals-(klej1005).html?source=IDx20111014x00001a&utm_source=IDx20111014x00001a&utm_medium=free&utm_campaign=comparison&utm_term=KLEJ1005&bvar7=google&bvar10=google&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=KLEJ1005 for crimping them.  I hate ratchet crimpers because most don't have enough force for a good crimp.
